This is the big one. This will be a tricky card to fill in. But I'll hopefully get most get these right.
Angel and Andrade vs Street Profits for the Tag Team Championships: Andrade and Angel Garzia defeat Street Profits (They've had a good run, so I think they should pass it on)
Drew McIntyre vs Randy Orton for the WWE Championship: Drew McIntyre retains against Orton (A risky move by me, But this was a very close call and I feel like Drew should have a longer reign.)
Apollo Crews vs MVP for the United States Championship: Apollo retains against MVP (I would rather give the title to Lashley then MVP)
Dominik vs Rollins: Dominik beats Rollins (It's his debut match, why would he lose?)
Banks vs Asuka for the Raw Women's Championship: Asuka claims the title (This was a bad move by WWE, they should revert it here) (CHANGED TO BANKS RETAIN)
Bayley vs Asuka for the Smackdown Women's Championship: Bayley will retain her championship. (CHANGED TO AN ASUKA WIN)
The Fiend vs Braun Strowman for the Universial Championship: The Fiend captures the title (I think The Fiend will have a second lengthy reign)
Payback coming when the card is announced.

- I'd like to see Andrade & Garza become a fully fledged team, both are way better as heels so having them argue all the time makes no sense to me, so hopefully that means them taking the titles. I wasn't a huge fan of the Profits in NXT, entertaining for sure but never saw them as championship material, but they've improved so much going to Raw.
- McIntyre has to retain here surely...SURELY? A win over Orton, who has been on top form since the Rumble, would further solidify him as champ. Hopefully this is a match that leads to a longer feud though as they don't exactly have contenders lined up ready. Keeping Orton & Drew together until Edge's return makes sense.
- Apollo retains hopefully. Nothing against MVP but Crews has been overlooked for too long. I'd love to see Apollo and Lashley square off down the line.
- Storyline here the babyface has to go over, but this is WWE. Are they really going to give a win to someone competing in their first match over one of the established stars? Plus I hope they're building to Samoa Joe's return as a match vs Rollins would be great...so maybe there's how Dom wins.
- Agreed again, but not because putting the title on Banks was the wrong move (it's the right move to further the storyline on), so I can see Bayley retaining first with help from Sasha but then a Bayley mistake costing Banks the title. Next night on Raw they then drop the tag-titles and we finally get one of them turning on the other.
- I love the Fiend, but I don't want to see him as champ. Thing is, I don't want to see Braun as champ either so I'm torn here. Be interesting if Alexa has a role to play here. Maybe Otis cashes in? But then as likable as he is, I don't really see him as a world champ either. Maybe Otis cashes in then loses on Smackdown to a debuting Ciampa?
- If Riddle vs Corbin happens I'm happy either way. I don't like Riddle's character much (the cheesy getting high stuff with Dunne was awful) but he's great in the ring. Always been a fan of Corbin and he should be nearer the top of the card IMO. So maybe Corbin wins with outside help.

Hardy and Styles is rumored and I'm a bit torn on it, Considering that Styles has the title for 3/4 months, I'll let him lose it to Hardy so he can climb back up to the main event. Hardy can have a short reign that leads to a victory by Corbin or perhaps Riddle.

I read on Wrestlezone that Orton is to win at Summer Slam and Drew regains at WM so he can get his moment in from of fans. Personally, I’m tired of storylines where the face chases the heel. I’d rather he trade no contests or dqs with Orton until RR. Then Drew can habe his WM moment defending the belt.
As a huge Wyatt fan, I’m rooting for him.
The rest of the card is up in the air for me, though I’m hoping SS is beginning the Bailey/Banks feud.

So it's Asuka v Bayley for the Smackdown women's title at Summerslam.
Bayley & Sasha to defend tag titles at Payback.

I'm going to pull off another risk and say that Asuka will beat Bayley, but lose to Banks.
They can have Banks screw Bayley over to start the feud with Banks as champ. Since the Banks match is happening first, Bayley will help Banks retain then Banks screws Bayley over. I don't usually change my predictions, But I'll take a risk here.
